Gatherlng Sprnc. Gum.

Sy.1ce gum is obtained in the forests o.
Canada. Maine, New Hampshire, and Yer
mont. The gum gath0rers 60 many miles
into the forest, erect rude cabins. and each
one remains until he has gathered 100
pounds. He carries it home where the
women and children clean it from all its i'm
purities. such as bark, twigs, and other for
eign substances, and sort ii into the different
grades, all of which are known to the young
est child in the business 1t is bic davis
work for a woman TO clean and sort ten
pounds While the household is cleaning his
collection the gum gatherer returns TO the
woods and works until he has another batch.
and getting it is not easy or rapid work. The
gatherers 90 through the woods looking at
the virgin spruces. When the gum that
forms on the outside or the trees is once re-
moved the tree will never again yield enough
to mako it worth the while Of the gatherer 10
visit it. So he must hunt out the trees that
have escaped the notice Of his class during all
the years the woods have been searched by
them
The gum gatherer carries a stout pole
which is in sections like a jointed fishing rod.
Atone end Of the pole a chisel is fitted nueiv
TO the wood. Beneath the chisel is q CUP
holding half pint When the gatherer dis
covers a mass Of gum on tree, no matter
how high it may be, he runs his chsel up
against it and cuts it OFF when it falls into the
cup. It is then placed in an oiled bag slung
across the back Of the gatherer. SO slow is
the accumulation by the collector, ordinarily,
that he considers himself fortunate if he
gathers 100 pounds mOntb.-New York

wonderful dog 1t is large black aud white
Newfoundland. This faithful animal per-
forms its daily work with the utmost prompt
ness and regularity. This consists in keeping
the kitchen wood box filled. At intervals |
through the day it will report to the kitchen
and view the wood box. Whenever the sup |
ply Of fuel is getting low he proceeds to the

grounding is a liar and a villain. -

The Salvation ARMY.

The Salvation Army. under the
leadership of Capt. Yoder, began an
assault on the sinners of Parsons,
Kan, last night.
As an illustration Of what an
aroused conscience will prompt man
IL 10, the following story is related
by the well-known hardware mer-
chant, John w. Houx: A few days
ago a man came into his establish
ment and inquired "what axes were
selling for in the year 1872" Mr..
Houx was a little surprised at the
question, but replied, "Sl.OO." The
man nodded his head and then taking
from his pocket a s. bill, profered
it to the hardware merchant with the
remark: ''In 1872 / stole an axe
from you take the price ofthe axe and
the interest due, from that bill. Mr..
Houx was considerably astonished,
hut after figuring the amount
of the interest due ON the dollar, it
was found to be $3.50. which Mr..
Houx reduced to $3.50, the man
cheerfully paying it. When asked
why he had determined to pay for the
axe, the man replied that he had "re-
Gently joined the Salvation Army, and
was anxious to atone for any wrong
he had DONE" Mr.. Houx charitably
refused to divulge .the mans name,
but highly commended him for his
act, further adding, that eff the Sal
walton Army was the means of such a
practical reformation as in this case
had been exhibited, it was certainly
worthy of encouragement"
Up to date there have been one
hundred and thirty-two converts made
by the Salvation Army in WarreRs-
burg.
The attendance last night at the
barracks was large, the exercises be-
ing conducted by Staff Captain Ash
burner, divisional officer.
Bill Workman spent several days
of last week in Sedalia, and gives
vivid account of the SalvatiOnists.
He is thinking of going back and
getting them to start up the procession
at this end of the line, Brownsville
Herald.
1t is rumored among the salvation
lists that when Happy Adam returns
from Wichita, Kas., he will be &C

BIG DOODLE.
A Sneak Thief Gets Away With lie
Safely.

The residence of III. T.. Morsman i,
agent of the Pacific Express company,
near Eleventh and Massachusetts
streets, was entered last night,
between eight and nine o'clock, ana
robbed of about $500 worth of iewelry
and wearing apparel Mr.. MOrsman
was down town and his wife had ste,I.
ped across the street to a neighbOr 5,
for brief while. During her absence
the thief effected an entrance through
a side window, and making his way
to a room on the first floor, proceeded
to load himself with valuables.
The articles secured are, as follows;
A gold watch and case, one set of
pearls, a handsome diamond ring, two
gold bracelets, a silver card case, with
the name "Estelle" engraved upon it,
two topaz sets, and two suits of
clothes, made by Walmsley, and val
ued at $40 each.
As soon as Mrs. Morsman discov-
ered her loss, she telegraphed to her
husband and the police. Officer
Shobe was detailed to investigate the
robbery, but the thief had made good
- escape with his booty, and moth
ing could be done IN the premises.
The presumption is that the party
and his rich haul are far, far from the
Queen City, by this time, or in secure
hiding.

Like to Know.

How much the organ of the boycotters
loves the laboring man?
If A. K. B. ever knew that he was too
nasty for decent people to associate with?
If the railroad men will like to be
boycotted by the Democrat because they
are employees of the railway?
When the boom will get so great that
it will keep the Democrat from lying about
it's building on lot that is owned by
Dempsey?
How much the Democrat loves honest
labor, to use its power to defeat Peter
Latsch because he is laboring man, and
in the employ of the railroad company?
If the young society gentlemen of
Sedalia have forgotten that the present
time is when the fresh spring flowers boom,
and that was the time they bestowed spring
boquets on ]. Volney Ryan's sister?

Before Judge Levins.

Very slim doings in the police court
yesterday morning, there being but
two cases, plain drunk and an al
legged vagrant.
James Foot pleaded guilty to the
former, and was fined So which he
paid.
John Mcbride, of Fort Scott, was
found lettering around at late hours,
and conducting himself as warrants
usually do. There were mitigating cir
cumstances in his behalf, and his
honor stayed the execution of the fine
of So against John, and this individ-
ual made good his escape from the
town.

remembered and could pleasantly mar
rate incidents enough to fill a large
sized volume and all of them full of
interest, too. Mr.. Ward had been in
failing health for several weeks and
quite often his life has been despaired
